As the waves of passion subsided. We found ourselves breathless and entangled on the kitchen counter, our bodies pressed against each other in the aftermath of our fiery make-out session. The air was thick with the scent of our mingled breaths and the lingering taste of our kisses.

I gazed into her eyes the stain of her tears earlier is still visible, but that only adds up to how ethereal she looks right now, still dazed by the intensity of our connection, as she reached up to tenderly brush a strand of hair from my face. A soft smile graced her lips, and I couldn't help but mirror it, feeling a rush of warmth and affection flood my senses.

In that moment, there was a sense of familiarity and comfort that washed over us, as if we had never truly been apart. Despite the passage of time and the distance that had once separated us, our love had endured, resilient and unwavering.

"I'm sorry" Siya na mismo ang pumutol sa katahimikan na bumabalot saming dalawa.

"For what?" wala pa sa wisyo kong tanong.

"For being a coward in the past. For not fighting my love for you. Kung sinigurado ko lang ang nakasulat sa letter na natanggap ko ay totoo hindi sana tayo aabot sa ganitong sitwasyon. Maybe everything is at its right place, maybe I'm the happiest bride to be if you were the one I'm engaged right now. Maybe I'm still the jolly and positive girl you love before" I shush her dahil nagbabadya nanaman tumulo ang kanyang mga luha. 

I reached for her cheeks and gave her a soft smile. "You're still the person that I loved Sandra, kahit ikaw pa ang naging masamang tao sa buong mundo my love for you will never change. It's unbelievable but it's true. All of this happens for a reason, maybe hindi pa tayo handa noon kaya the universe separates us for the meantime and God knows how much we love each other kaya he find a way for us to meet again." Just looking at her being so vulnerable in front of me right now makes me want to fill her with all the longing I had for her in the past few years, pero kailangan kong sabihin sakanya 'to lahat.

"These past few years I thought I'm really over you. Kala ko nawala ka na sa sistema ko, kasi hindi na kita naiisip eh. Hindi na ako nasasaktan sa tuwing naririnig ko ang pangalan mo. Wala na akong pake kapag naaamoy ko ang pabango mo. Hindi na ako lumilingon kapag naririnig ko ang boses mo. But the moment you step out of that elevator I know for myself my feelings for you never change, I just sealed it at the back of my heart and gave you the key, for you to open it again at lahat ng itinago ko ay sabay sabay na lumabas." I saw how her cheeks turns into a crimson shade while listening to my confession. My heart flutter just by thinking how much of an impact I am to her.

"Can we fix it?" Tanong niya with a glimpse of hope in her eyes. Napabuntong hininga naman ako sa tanong niya.

"I want to fix it Sandra, pero mahirap, our status palang hindi na nag tutugma. Specially now that you're engaged with someone ay mas mahirap. I don't know if we can still fix it" Saad ko ng may lungkot sa tano. Kinuha naman niya ang dalawa kong kamay at inilapit ito sa puso niya.

"Listen, kahit ang mundo pa ang magiging kalaban nating dalawa. I will never ever turn my back on you, not again... Not this time. With all my powers and resources right now, I can fight for you. Just give me the time to fix everything, let me fight for you... for us?" I can't help but smile to her eagerness. If this is a dream I don't want to wake up.

"If the universe gave us the way to meet again, why not give it fight. I'll fight for you too Sandra" She let out a joyous smile na para bang nanalo sa lotto and I can't help but to smile either. Just seeing her this happy and the smile she hid for a long time coming out makes my heart tingles.
